NEED MOAR GOBLINS
« on: September 24, 2010, 07:56:41 pm »
Goblins often seem to go extinct during my worldgens, and they're always fairly weak. Is there any (non-mod) way to tweak worldgen parameters to make them more common?

I currently ramp up the number of evil subregions, but that doesn't really seem to be helping.

Check the world gen cookbook thread for a history seed that has lots of goblins then gen a world using that.

There is some randomness involved, I basically just visually watch for goblin towns as much as is practical before accepting a map while genning.

Maybe stop your world age at an earlier date?

Maybe mod the biome support tokens for the goblin entity?

Anyhow, yeah, all i can think of is ending Worldgen earlier, or finding a good Worldgen seed.

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.
